Good Web Design at A List Apart

I've just come across this series of articles on A List Apart . The first article discusses the difference between "graceful degradation" and "progressive enhancement" which is a subtle but important difference. The second article deals with CSS and so got my mind tweak when talking about typography and how CSS can control it, which is something I want to get more involved in. I had read that the Thesis theme for WordPress does a lot of work with typography... and I want to learn how! If you have any good sites that discuss, explain, or illustrate good typography in web design, please leave them in the comments for all to see and explore.
